Paris 2006: Manifesto for Inhabitation

This project explores the dichotomy beyond the socio-political battleground of the Peripherique.

My intention was more than accumulating program to provide for an increasing population, but to remove myself as a dictator of living and provide a skeletal matrix that affords an infinite amount of unexplored modes of inhabitation that I find far more interesting as an instrument for acquiring demographic projections along the edge of the peripherique. As brutal as it is, it is actually feasible as a technique of inhabiting space. The verticality expresses the thin, hardcore modernist argument while exploiting the edge and rejecting composition.
